The myth of "Reasonable" Restrictions

Lyle, over at Joe Huffman’s blog has the best response I’ve read to the people that want “reasonable” limits on the 2nd amendment.

The first amendment does not protect fraud, liable, slander, or incitement to illegal violence as “free speech” any more than the second amendment protects armed robbery and murder as an integral part of the right to keep and bear arms. It says, “…the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed”. It doesn’t say, “…the right of the people to keep and bear arms and to threaten, to rob or to kill anyone they wish, shall not be infringed”.
